MyCEB kickstarted the journey of hosting Association Day in 2022 as a platform to share a cutting-edge space of continued education, advocacy and professionalism in association management. This year, the Bureau has co-organised with the Malaysia Society of Association Executives (MSAE) with a renewed goal to elevate the professionalism of association management.

This year, Association Day will mark an important milestone with the presence of a keynote speaker from the Chair of the Board of Directors of the American Society of Association Executives, Ms. Lakisha Ann to further explain how effective association management operates in the United States. As the mother of associations with an astounding number of over 22,000 executives, Association Day welcomes a Keynote Speech by Ms. Lakisha to further enlighten the key areas of strength within associations.

It is in our interest to ensure that associations in Malaysia showcase our people and our capabilities. It is for this reason that it is important for associations to be well managed, and equipped with the necessary skills, as you become ambassadors for what Malaysia has to offer.

With Associations being a leading driver of community development, we will be able to organically attract international businesses here.”
